I have been running cm7 for about 2 months now. I'm looking for another solid custom rom that runs well on the inspire. Any suggestions?

If you want a true Google experience, download this one:
[rom/kernel] * GingerBeast * -AOSP hybrid- 2.0 - xda-developers

The dev for this one is really good at this stuff and all the ROM's of his I've used, they all were stable and fast as all get out. I'm using this one now, and have been for a couple of weeks now. Haven't had a single issue. I recommend that one.

If you like having Sense on your phone, there are a bunch on there for that too. All depends on what you prefer.

Does Ginger beast work well with the 10.3 version of flash. I have had an issue with cm7. Had to downgrade back to flash 10.2

Download SetCPU from the market. that will allow you to tweak the processor speed. If you haven't done that before, go up in small incremements. Blasting all the way up will probably lock your phone up.

When you call someone, does the audio sound grainy and hi pitched? Mine definitely does. Nbd but did you have this problem, or possibly know the issue? Thanks again for your help

If you downloaded the new version of Ginger beat, you also need to flash the update patch in the OP of his thread. It fixes the sound quality and a couple of other things. Hope you're enjoying the AOSP goodness. :)

I was using GingerBeast for a few days, and its not bad. Only thing for me was not being able to customize my icons like CM7. It was a hassle, and so, I switched back to CM7.

And Netflix was buggy on GingerBeast. Not buggy, just terrible quality, as with CM7, it was crisp.

You can change your icon if you get launcher pro plus.

You don't really need a video.

All you do is take your ROM, place it on the root of your SD Card.

Go to ROM Manager, and Install from SD Card - Pick the ROM.zip and it installs. (Do a full wipe for a clean install)

Be sure to read what radio is needed for the roms, so you don't get radio issues like No Wifi or HSUPA enabled - get with the ROM developer which one is recommended.

Does anyone know how to properly install the recommended radio for Ginger beast. I don't want to mess it up.

I have gone through 7 custom roms (used several features, functionalities/apps intensively for approx 3-4 days each rom) and I had to come back to Android Revolution with No Sense.
Extremely stable. Excellent battery life. During the day time, I put on my corporate hat and NEED this phone to work along the same line and during the evening, it needs to co-operate with a twist in lifestyle.
Although, i could ramble along without putting my finger on what it is that I like about this Rom, it just has the right ingredients for me.
I must admit, MIUI is definitely way up there. Simply put. Sleek and robust.

I'm on lee droid rom and its stable with oc to 1.8. Its has great battery life with oc and I'm a pretty heavy user myself. A great alternative is the new kingdom rom with is at 1.3. Wait a month out so before downloading it because the battery life isn't the best. But check it out anyway.
